The top of Monitor pass, east end. 50 more miles and on the 395 towards home! 10/25/2016. Around 8,000'

Was lucky enough to see this Monitor sitting by the side of Fogg Dam. Jumped out the car, alittle nervous about crocodiles and quickly snapped away. It posed nicely for a few minutes before crossing the road and disappearing into the scrub.

Thanks for the name correction Rob!

Happy Caturday 12/23/23 - the theme this week is a tribute to our kitties who are no longer with us….

This was taken, according to the EXIF data, in February of 2008. It’s probably the first picture I have of her! My mom’s old apple computer sloped back and was a perfect place for her to lounge and be close to me!!

 

ODT -- heads or tails took this picture many many moons ago, in a darkened room with no attention to lighting, focus or whatever. (boy, have i learned a lot in the last year.)....... my little black cat used to love being close when i was working on my mom's computer. periodically i would have to push her leg back up and out of the screen's left 1/3rd

The water monitor is one of the most striking members of the Reptile family and is second in size only to the Nile crocodile. Including the tail, large adults can reach lengths of up to nearly 2.5 meters. Its body is adorned with beautiful yellow patterning, aiding it to be well camouflaged in its preferred habitat close to bodies of water and reed beds. Although usually found close to water, these monitors are not water dependent and will actively forage for food on land, traveling large distances from water if need be. They are also capable of climbing trees but are usually found basking on riverbanks.

Striking colours on this individual. Seen 3 within 20 minutes at my local. Previous years I would have been lucky to see one in many visits

This Lace Monitor is a new resident of our zoo. The species is native to Australia and they are the second largest monitors there. Lace Monitors reach a total length of about 2 m (7 ft) and a weight of about 14 kg (30 lb). I think they are beautiful animals and I will certainly try to take more photos of them in the near future.

Such a gorgeous creature ❤️

 

At nearly two meters (7 ft) long, the Nile monitor (Varanus niloticus) is Africa’s largest lizard and one of the most intelligent reptiles on Earth.

With keen eyesight, sharp claws, and a powerful tail, it is an apex predator in many freshwater ecosystems.

Revered and feared, the Nile monitor plays a vital role in maintaining the delicate balance of riverine and wetland habitats across sub-Saharan Africa.

a monitor lizard or iguana at Entopia, Penang. These lizards are very common in South-East Asia. Although I live in an urban area in Kuala Lumpur, one (about 4-5 feet long) came into my garden and up to my window a few years back. They are quite harmless but their claws are really sharp and can do serious damage to our skins.
